package org.car2x.veins.base.connectionManager;

// Module to control all connection related stuff
//
// The central module that coordinates the connections between all
// nodes, and handles dynamic gate creation.  ConnectionManager therefore
// periodically communicates with the mobility module and
// ChannelAccess.
//
// The value maxInterfDist used here in ConnectionManager defines the upper bound of any transmission,
// i.e. it can be redifined in the analogue models, but never such
// that the maximal interference distance is exeeded.
